The University Seal

The University Seal communicates that the document on which it appears is an official and formal communication of the institution. The University Seal may be displayed on diplomas and certificates, on printed pieces of highest official rank, and on the business papers of the Chancellor’s Office.

What do the seal symbols mean?

The University Seal includes the official name of the institution along with a specific campus identifier. 1909 is the year of the founding. The University Arch, the oldest structure on the campus, was given as a gift by the Class of 1927. This symbol serves as a metaphorical gateway or passage to the next steps students will take in their lives. The University Seal also contains a laurel wreath, signifying the high achievement of its attendees.
